A continuous line of repose
The page titles the bed "A continuous line of repose": a tapered, slightly slanted headboard that connects with the frame to give a sleek bed with individuality.
Screws left visible
On the sheet, the exposed screws of the aluminium base have a double purpose, to show the bed's look and to allow the base to be disassembled and its components recycled at the end of its life-cycle.
